Dunlop Eric Sardinas Preachin' Pipe 285, Large

Description

Dunlop 285 Preachin Pipe Slide (Large)

The Preachin’ Pipe is an authentic reproduction of maverick bluesman Eric Sardinas’ own handmade slide. Sculpted by thousands of live shows, it has a fast, tapered shape from years of blazing across the strings of a sweat-soaked dobro. The pure brass is worn to perfect thinness where you connect with the strings, giving it a distinctive resonance and sensitivity. Of course, you might also want to let its flared, weighted end do the talking. Either way, now you can experience the custom, fluid feel of the Pipe—and its intensely feverish tone—without spending a lifetime on roadhouse stages. Get your own Preachin’ Pipe. It wasn’t just made for the blues—it was made by the blues.

Slide Size Issues

I like the outer shape of this slide, and the sound is very brassy and musical. The problem I am having with it is the size of the inner diameter. I bought the large version, and from one end I find it too tight for my fat (ring size 13) finger. From the other end it is too loose, and I have had to tighten it up with a piece of moleskin. I've had to do that with other, cheaper slides too, so it's not a deal breaker. Just a little disappointing.
